Commercial Projects

Gas Station-Lynchburg, Virginia

Greene Environmental became involved with the project following the discovery of gasoline contamination during the removal of the site’s petroleum underground storage tanks (USTs).  Nearly 1,000 tons of gasoline contaminated soils were removed from the ground during Initial Abatement Activities.  Groundwater monitoring wells were installed at the site during multiple Site Characterization and Reporting (SCR) phases.  Subsequent to encountering free phase gasoline contamination within multiple monitoring wells, Greene Environmental developed the Corrective Action Plan (CAP) to address the contamination and achieve remediation endpoints.  The CAP employed long term implementation of dual phase extraction (DPE) remediation equipment to recover the approximately 35,000 pounds of subsurface gasoline contamination.  Having achieved the long-term remediation endpoints through CAP Implementation, Greene is currently transitioning the site towards final closure.

Gas Station-Blacksburg, Virginia

Greene Environmental became involved with the project during the negotiations activities prior to the successful property transfer.  Greene Environmental provided regulatory guidance to all involved parties, performed a rapid turnaround Phase II Environmental Site Assessment, and provided a turnkey solution for the documented removal of the regulated underground storage tanks (USTs) and gasoline contaminated soils.  Over 350 tons of contaminated soil was removed from the site during UST Closure activities and the DEQ has issued a No Further Action (NFA) Letter releasing the site from further study.  The current owner has proceeded with development plans ahead of schedule.

Gas Station-Scottsburg, Virginia

Greene Environmental became involved with the project when questions arose concerning the former gasoline UST system during a potential property transaction.  During the initial site assessment, gasoline contamination was discovered in connection with the former UST system.  Numerous groundwater monitoring wells were installed at the site during multiple phases of work.  The subsurface petroleum contamination has now been adequately characterized and Greene Environmental expects to develop a site specific Corrective Action Plan (CAP) during the current calendar quarter.

County Municipal Building—Southwest, Virginia

Greene Environmental was contacted by county officials concerning the rapid loss of fuel from one of county’s fuel oil underground storage tanks (USTs).  Greene Environmental immediately reported the release to the Virginia Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) thus qualifying clean-up activities for reimbursement through the Virginia Petroleum Storage Tank Fund (VPSTF).  Greene coordinated the installation of a temporary above ground tank and the transfer of the remaining fuel to the temporary tank and following a brief planning period, removed the leaking UST and approximately 75 tons of contaminated soil.  A new double-walled UST was installed and the excavation area was resurfaced to match the surrounding parking area.  Operations were back to normal within one month and based on the findings documented during the UST removal the DEQ closed the release from further study.

Gas Station-Martinsville, Virginia

Greene Environmental became involved with the project when multiple compliance issues were noted during a Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) inspection.  Greene Environmental liaised with the DEQ on behalf of the client and was able to negotiate an acceptable Letter of Agreement between the client and the DEQ.  The out of non-compliant UST system was temporarily closed until an agreement could be met for permanent closure.  Greene Environmental rapidly performed the documented removal of the regulated tank system.  The site is now registered as permanently closed preventing any future regulatory issues.

Gas Station-Altavista, Virginia

Following the discovery formerly unknown underground gasoline tanks during a property demolition, Greene Environmental was contacted to provide regulatory guidance in moving forward with the demolition project.  Petroleum contamination was discovered and approximately 200 tons of contaminated soil was removed from the site for disposal.  Removal of the contaminated soils resulted in site closure thus eliminating any future liability for the property owner.

Public School System-Southside, Virginia

Greene Environmental was awarded a bid contract to provide the Public School System with the turn-key removal of numerous out-of-use heating oil underground storage tanks (USTs) at multiple school system facilities.  Greene coordinated with local and state officials as well as School System employees and local utilities providers to successfully complete the project on schedule and under budget.

Greene Environmental has completed numerous other commercial projects throughout Virginia.  Please contact us for additional information.
